Tayma

One of the oldest Settlement in Saudi Arabia, and the whole Arabian Peninsula. In 2016 the Saudi Commission for Tourism and National Heritage (SCTNH) announced that a joint research team comprising Saudi archaeologists and experts from Oxford University discovered the oldest human bone during an excavation at Tayma. The bone found is the middle part of the middle finger of a human being who lived 90 000 years ago, the oldest human trace found to date in the Arabian Peninsula.
